The College Freshman's Don't Book / in the interests of freshmen at large, especially those whose remaining at large uninstructed & unguided appears a worry and a menace to college & university society these remarks and hints are set forth by G. F. E. (A. B.) a sympathizer

by George Fullerton Evans

HORSY ORNAMENTS

Don't affect stick-pins bearing large horses' heads or horseshoes, thinking these will demonstrate that you keep a gig. The horsy ornament connotes the coachman's white tie and the odor of the stable.

THAT CANE

Don't carry a cane in your Freshman year; something is very likely to happen to it.

THAT TALL HAT

Don't be found displaying a tall hat. A tall hat is a mighty nice thing for Sister's wedding at home; but better leave it there. Its dignity is liable to fade, like the glory that was Greece and the grandeur that was Rome. It was only because those nations got too chesty, you remember, that the Vandals of old worried them.

CRAZY MEN—CRAZY CLOTHES

Don't think that crazy or odd clothes are necessarily "College" clothes. Lots of College men do wear crazy clothes; but it isn't so much because they're College men, as because they're crazy.

SANE DRESS

Don't forget to dress neatly and up to your means. You owe it to yourself to dress as well as you can. I don't mean that owing this to yourself should necessitate your continually owing something to your tailor. You do not owe it to yourself to owe anybody.
